Fire Conclave Convergence Villa

Once the shade parts are built, a single 20' pole is used to thread through the rings and the parts are zip-tied together. Then, all six points of the perimeter and the central spire are erected at once. All 7 poles are slipped over rebar to prevent "migration".

Presently, I'm working on a method of attaching the shade to the poles. Perhaps we'll cut holes at the top of the 10' poles and thread the slack through. The rings can be affixed to the center post with bar clamps

Once the shade is lofted on the posts, two teams will tighten down opposide lines around the center until all 15' tethers are tied down to rebar stakes. Then we stand back and pray. :)

Check out the "vision" section to see some renderings of the completed beast.
